Sha’Carri Richardson reflects on her career revealing her favorite accomplishment while setting her sights on even greater achievements ahead.

Olympic silver medalist Sha’Carri Richardson is embracing every step of her journey but she already has her eyes set on the next big stage—the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games.

Fresh off her Olympic debut in Paris, where she secured a silver medal in the 100m and anchored Team USA to gold in the 4x100m relay, Richardson has reflected on her favorite career moment so far.

On Thursday, Nike, Richardson’s long-time sponsor since 2019, unveiled their latest campaign featuring the 24-year-old star.

The campaign highlighted her rise and relentless pursuit of greatness, and when asked to pick her favorite accomplishment so far, Richardson did not hesitate.

“If I had to pick out of all of these, my favorite moment, of course, would be earning my silver medal at the Olympics, this 2024 Olympic Games,” Richardson stated.

“Being able to sit and look at all of my accomplishments continues to show that I am on the path that I am designed to be on. And there are so much more accomplishments to add to the list.”

Back in 2021, she won the US Olympic Trials but was later barred from competing in the Tokyo Games after testing positive for cannabis.

She returned to the world stage in 2023, clinching gold in the 100m and the 4x100m relay at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest.

A year later, she once again topped the US Olympic Trials and made her highly anticipated Olympic debut in Paris.

At the Games, Richardson had to settle for silver in the 100m but made a resounding statement by anchoring Team USA to gold in the 4x100m relay.

“I would say honestly being in the Paris 2024 Olympics has been an honor, it has been humbling, it has been fun. And I cannot, I literally cannot wait for LA. Like I’m almost like jumping three years ahead because this experience was something totally unbelievable,” Richardson shared in an interview with Blavity TV as per SportsKeeda.

Now heading into 2025, Richardson remains at the top of her game.

She enters the year as the reigning 100m World Champion and while she has yet to open her season, all eyes are on her as she gears up for another crucial year.
